Can I use the Practice Test Builder and Error Analysis at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for 8th Grade study skills, and it works the same at home or at school. At home a student can print it and keep it with their school work. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
How does the three box flash card system work?
⌄
All new cards start in Box 1. A card answered right moves up one box, and a card answered wrong goes back to Box 1. Box 2 is reviewed every other day and Box 3 once a week, and a two week tracker records the moves.
How do students use a practice test to study?
⌄
Practice Test Builder and Error Analysis has students write five questions and an answer strip one day, then fold the strip back and take the test the next day. For each miss they check did not know it, misread or careless and write what they will do about it.
Are these study tools graded?
⌄
They are meant for students' own planning, so there are no answer keys. Teachers can check that each section is complete or use the pages in a short study skills conference.
